    throwing up my hands

    Hi, I have been so aggravated with my phone since the update I could have thrown it off of a very tall building, well building, bridge, Shaquille O'Neal, any tall structure. Anywho...I broke down and did a factory reset and that definitely helped with some of the "bugginess", however, wifi...

    Dialpad open by default

    Lol...as soon as I read your reply I was like wow...I'm such an idiot. I so knew that. Thank you very much anyway. :o Sent from my SCH-I405 using Tapatalk

    Dialpad open by default

    I don't know how you feel about third party apps but Dialer One lets you customize your opening screen to have the dial pad either open or closed. It also lets you choose the list that appears above the dial pad. You can have it open to call log, contacts or favorites. Another awesome...

    Swipe text issue

    Hi Baxter...I was just curious what version of Swype you have. The reason I ask is I managed to sneak an update to mine. There's a loophole that I happened upon and since I updated the preinstalled version mine has gotten so much better. Granted I wasn't having the freezing on certain letters...

    Dialpad open by default

    Since I am one of those people who never "dial" anything I wanted my phone/dial to open to my call log (most of the people I would call are in there). My stock dialer opened to the dial pad and I had to go to favorites from there. Not a huge deal but a pain and even worse if I was driving or...

    Swipe text issue

    I love Swype but it's very quirky and since they don't offer updates to the preinstalled version I am exploring third party apps. I tried Touchpal but it seems to be quirkier than Swype. Using Swype now to type this because I'm hooked on it. About every third word is wrong...uuuuggghhh. Very...

    Swipe text issue

    Btw...my phone had the same exact symptoms; my phone would freeze for a few seconds and I would have to change the input method to something else and then back. Like I mentioned earlier, mine did this only when typing the letter "I" which is pretty close to the "k" so it could be a hardware...

    Swipe text issue

    I was having this issue with the letter "I". It must be sporadic from one phone to the next because I broke my Stratosphere that was doing it and the replacement they sent me has never had this problem.

    Loud alarm sound from hell.

    Mine only did this when I had voice mail because apparently my phone alerts you to vm at start up...well my alert sound was on the card so while the card was being scanned at start up it couldn't play the correct sound so it plays a default "missing sound" sound. Hasn't happened since I changed...

    Loud alarm sound from hell.

    This is what worked on my Samsung Stratosphere. Hasn't happened since I changed my alert notification to a system one that is on the phone and not the card. I copied and pasted the info below. I used to get this when the notification sound was located on the sd card, when the device starts it...
